Re: Help: Finite State Machine for NMEA parsing

I wrote the code and debugged. It is working quite ok now. The FSM is not fully implemented with timeouts etc.I am not sure if I really want to implement timeouts. I added the code to my github. Did not check if I could make the repository at unfuddle public. https://github.com/herath/ATMega-GPS/blo...

Re: Help: Finite State Machine for NMEA parsing

Thanks. I will try to implement this in FSM. I have another parser working. But I am not happy with it. And the whole thing is also working fine with occasional resetting when the display toggle push button (that I added) is pressed rapidly. I am thinking of adding hardware debouncing circuit to it ...

Help: Finite State Machine for NMEA parsing

I am on a ATMega32 writing a little GPS reciever. The system is almost completed. However, I am thinking of doing some modifications in the way I parse the NMEA sentences. I am thinking of using a state machine so that it could be easier to spot problems and debug. However, I am thinking that I am g...

Re: Need help on ATMega32A fuses

I got the fuse bits programmed. I was scared, how ever went ahead with it. Now the chip is running with an external 7.3728MHz crystal that I salvaged from an old circuit. Tested my 16x4 LCD driver codes. It works faster than the internal clock. :D

Re: Where to buy denatured alchohol

I will look in a paint shop. :D. It is ethanol with little methanol added. Haven't seen those products in SL.

Where to buy denatured alchohol

Hi,

I want to buy some alchohol for trying french polishing. Are they available in local hardware stores?. I haven't dealt with those hardware stores and do not have any idea about their inventories.

Looking for about 500ml.
Thanks

Re: Any good Game to play??

It was Mass Effect 2 that I started with. Did not play ME1 since it was old. Mass Effect is a science fiction Role Playing Game. It (and the genre of RPG) is very different from games like Crysis. I did not play crysis 1 either. It was too cartoonish like the far cry 1. But I finished the Crysis 2 i...

Re: Any good Game to play??

Anyway, I finished the far cry 2. FC1 was too cartoonish for my taste. Driving around and doing things in the wild was fun. :D There was another game called "Sniper:Ghost Warriors" that I played. However, if you do not have the stealth and patience you are not going to enjoy the game. Sometimes, hou...

Re: Any good Game to play??

Seems like you are after First Person Shooters. If you have not tried the Half-Life series, try it. Then the tactical shooter Ghost Recon is also good. I will list some of my favorite FPS games. All Half-Life games Ghost Recon Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 Gore F.E.A.R 2 Halo Cannot remember lot of them. I am...
